The Result of Scoffing at My Cold

Well, I put my cold on the back burner to try to enjoy the holidays (I'll do a post on our New Year celebrations soon) per my previous post and the following was the result: Bronchitis - oh yes, the hacking, vile, disgusting, mucus-filled coughs that at one point had me vomiting and at other … Continue reading The Result of Scoffing at My Cold

I Scoffed at My Cold

Perhaps against my better judgement the husband and I went out yesterday.  It was a bit cold walking to the train station but I had a jacket and a very nice scarf wrapped around my neck keeping me warm.The scarf was a gift to myself...kinda.  Thanks to Jasmine at Flux and Flow I was introduced … Continue reading I Scoffed at My Cold
